Bible Question:
Acts 4:27,28 "For truly in this city there were gathered together against Your holy servant Jesus, whom You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, along with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel, to do whatever Your hand and Your purpose predestined to occur. Dear Jeff, The Bible indicates that all men (Jews and Gentiles alike) were responsible. It also informs them that God Himself predestined everything that occured! To single out the Jews as a race is a travesty of justice. Not all Jews called for Christ's death anymore than did all Gentiles. The crucifixion was planned by God and carried out by wicked men. They meant it for evil but God meant it for good. Now who are we to hold responsible? John |
Bible Answer: I hope this is a biblical question because it has a bibical answer: which is conclusive in 1 Thessalonians 2:14-15. All men have sin and come short of the glory of God: Jesus paid the price for our sin. However, all men did not participate in events surrounding Christ's crucifixion. |
